The police are the most useless fucking people on the planet. We don't need to spend a bunch more money hiring police. For every her you see on Cops there are umpteen more useless bags of shit who have nothing better to do than take out their insecurities by hassling innocent motorists. If you want to stop crime, take the lazy fuckers with nothing better to do than generate extra tax revenue off the backs of legitimate citizens, and put their asses to work actually stopping crime. Here's a rundown of the last few months for me:

September 2006
"What's the problem officer?"
"You were going 70 in a 60, do you have a reason for that?"
"Yessir, my 6 month old daughter cannot breathe, and I'm trying to get her home to her medicine."
"Here's your ticket."

December 2006
"Hello officer, is this about the headlight that's out?"
"Yes it is, have you known about that long?"
"No sir, I just found out on this little excursion from my house, and since I left after all the auto parts stores were closed I haven't been able to fix it. I'll be doing that in the morning."
"Here's your ticket"

January 2007
"The reason I pulled you over is because you have an expired registration and inspection sticker. Here's your ticket"


To be fair, the last guy was nice enough to let me off with a warning for not having my insurance on me, and he had legitimate reason to give me a ticket. Give me a ticket though, not pull me over.
